http://www.newsday.com/opinion/hillary-clinton-why-do-democrats-insist-on-her-1.11208893 Day after day, we are treated to liberal columnists wringing their hands in feigned concern over the fate of the Republican Party. None of these people have ever voted for a single Republican, and they will never do so. Yet, that does not slow down people such as E.J. Dionne, Dana Milbank, Eugene Robinson, etc. from continually writing that the Republican Party has lost its way, lost sight of its traditional positions, and crying crocodile tears over how removed Republicans are from how other Americans view things. Well, suppose a conservative had the audacity to do the same about the Democrats in general, and Hillary Clinton in specific. It might look something like the following. The Democratic Party has enjoyed a great deal of success in recent presidential elections, nominating and electing candidates with appeal to a wide array of voters, not simply their liberal base. Now, it seems a once great party is on the verge of insisting the rest of America simply shut up and go along with electing a candidate viewed harshly and as untrustworthy by virtually every voter group other than self-identified Democrats. Everyone but Democrats appears to be screaming: Please do not do this. Nominate someone other than Hillary Clinton. Just how bad are things? Among all voters, the most recent data indicate Hillary Clinton is viewed negatively by a margin of seven points — 44 favorable, 51 percent unfavorable. On its face, that might not sound so terrible, although it is never good for any candidate to be upside-down on this measure. When you dig a little deeper, you discover that among Democrats, Mrs. Clinton enjoys a favorable rating of 85 versus an unfavorable rating of 11, a whopping plus 74 points. For this to be true, the rest of the country, Republicans and independents, have to be especially negative and unfavorable toward the former first lady. That is simple arithmetic. More at the link.
Nobody likes her but Democrats. Not independents. Not republicans. Not Green Party. Nobody. Hard to miss that. "independents, have to be especially negative and unfavorable toward the former first lady. That is simple arithmetic. "
You mean, nobody lists her as their first choice. But almost all non-Republicans rank her above all of the Republican candidates. This is typical of elections. Have you ever watched any?
And you will wager on this sure thing? I will cover it with my Cola. 65 million of us want more of dis shit.
Only her health due to age might stop her. Look at 2004. The world was astounded that the U.S. re-elected the worst president in its history. In 2012, the country laughed at Republican donors as they wasted a couple billion dollars to convince each other that they had any chance of defeating Obama.
I'm thinking:::: Trump vs.Clinton. :{( The entire plate of political candidates is sub pare and should be taken away from our table. Return them to the kitchen and over to the dumpster. Every single American should have the choice to vote for "None of the Above" and count that as the dictate.
I'm surrounded by Democrats and I've yet to meet an actual fan of her. That's spanning age and gender. Nobody likes her. She's shady as hell. She's in bed with the banks. If you took out the gay bashing and the anti-abortion crap, she would be a Republican.
I assume she was promised support from democrat higher ups for playing nice the last 8 years. That and she has raised a fortune from the usual suspects. I'm certainly not voting for her.
I think we should all vote for Marcus Mariota. http://www.titansonline.com/video/v...sonville/65ac8303-31ac-4240-9445-70ee303d8ebf
Funny how they fail to realize that the Dems are in the same boat as the GOP. If you fail to gain the support of the middle, you lose, Period.
Wow, that was pretty cool. Mariota is hilarious, so few words. "Thank you." "Thank you." He really needs a better o-line. Hopefully that franchise gets their shit together. I would suck to see him stuck in BS is entire career.
Ha! I still have visions of Joe, standing on the Senate floor making the machine gun sound; Ah ah ahahah! Geez, I would hate to see him be President. But... Biden vs Bush and Joe gets the vote.
